BIG SNIP


I understand you totally.  I am by far the most Potter-Obsessed 
person I know, but it is very discouraging when your friends, who 
are very educated people, are very dismissive of Harry.  I does seem 
like some people just say that it is too commercialized and 
therefore it can't be good.  They just don't know how wrong they 
are.  I really am glad that you chose PoA. It is my personal 
favorite, and if any of the books will turn their heads, that one 
will.  I hope that they do read it so you can prove them all wrong.

Good luck :)
